Just got my new Benelli Sbe2 yesterday, will be shooting hevi- 3 inch#4's and 3.5 inch bb's for ducks/geese. wondering if the stock cryo mod choke is the best choice or if there is a better aftermarket choice? thanks

So far the flush factory Crio Plus chokes have been patterning very good. With that said I have purchased a couple Trulock precision hunter extended chokes. I have IC and Mod. These are the two chokes I use the most for general non-tox work and I like to have them available for a fast change if conditions change. I like extended because I don't have to keep track of a wrench. I just put the extra choke in a shell loop in my pocket and it's handy for a fast change. I will use the factory choke for when I need to set up for longer range shooting and use the IM or full.

I may add a skeet for use in close cover especially with hevi shot because those #6’s pattern so good; however, I will probably just let them get out a couple more yards before I let them have it because after this season I will probably be out of hevi and back to fast steel loads, which do fine in the IC over decoys.

I run the same extended chokes for my 870's also, but I am considering a couple more choke for that gun because I really do see some better patterning with the aftermarket extended chokes. The rem chokes are very short comparied to all the new ones and I think the aftermarket extended chokes with a little parrallel section helps out.

i end up with alot of pass shooting on my pond due to another set of blinds on the pond so i was gonna shoot 3" #4 hevi's, or should i use the 6's? i am still working on my calling so i don't always get em in super close
